Fabulous subject for an ink drawing Mia. I like the way you have tackled this....loose but detail where it’s needed.

Really good Mia great pen work as Fiona said detail were needed, when i was young we use to get our water from a pump like this, nice one.

Lovely drawing Mia, like the emphasis on the pump and the detail fading out from it.

This is the view of the garden of my English friend. She did send me a picture of this beautiful water-pump. I made a pen and wash using black watersoluble ink. When the ink was dry, I added a wash here and there to accentuate the focal point. Size A4 on Bockingford 300g watercolour paper. All comments are very welcome :) Mia
